Sir Chris returns to two wheels

SIR Chris Hoy has sensationally returned to two wheels – but in a car.

The Olympic hero has posted a video on social media of himself driving a car over 300 yards down a disused runway on only two wheels.

Since retiring, the six-time Olympic cycling champion has swapped the velodrome for the race track and recently competed in the famous Le Mans 24-hour endurance race.

He’s now taken his love of motorsport one step further by driving a Nissan Juke on its side along a sun-soaked track and described the experience as “amazing”.

The 6-time Olympic champion made his return to two wheels but not in the way you might expect

The 40-year-old said he would have gone further and only came down onto all four wheels again because of a “funny sound” that made him think the tyres were about to “pop”.

Hoy shared the video with his 708,000 Twitter followers this afternoon with the caption: “The unedited clip of my two-wheeled run in the @Nissan juke. Thanks to the legend @TerryGrant_1 for the coaching!”

The minute-long clip starts with the driving along the deserted track and onto a ramp, which enables him to get the vehicle up on two wheels.

He then somehow manages to drive along using only the left two wheels for the next 40 seconds as someone else films him from a car alongside.
